Check out some of the advantages of starting a career with us:

You will have the opportunity to learn and grow in your career. Our leadership is committed to developing the best people, processes, and infrastructure possible to support our customers.

We have excellent benefits and great leadership in the HR department that is always looking for ways to improve the quality of our medical, dental, and 401k options, along with all of our other benefits.

Our Town Halls are a blast! These meetings are held quarterly where we get fed lunch and get to hear from our CEO as well as other members of the leadership team. They share everything from company news and financial performance, to giving out years of service recognition and Core Values awards.

We know how to throw a party. Have a look at of the photos below to see our many events we have during the year. From the “Dude Day” cookout, to the Dear Jack Foundation Fundraiser that included a food fight and dunking tank, to one of the best company Halloween parties in town, to the 12 Days of Christmas, we make sure that we play just as hard as we work.

We have a gym stocked with exercise equipment, and a large breakroom with Avenue C, just in case you did not have time to pack your lunch that morning, or you need a dose of caffeine in the afternoon.

Our Core Values

One of the main reasons we have such a great atmosphere here at Mspark is that we are led by a set of Core Values. These values are not just a poster on the wall, we use these values to guide our interactions with customers and our fellow employees. At every Town Hall, 6 of our people get presented with one of the Core Values awards by our CEO, Steve Mitzel, in front of the entire company. The winners have been nominated by their peers to receive an award for demonstrating a particular Core Value. These coveted awards are not just a piece of paper, either. There is a t-shirt, and gift certificate or tickets to an event personalized by the interests of the person receiving the award.

“It is all about the people and trusting the process. Our people are what make us great and our processes are how we get everything done while still having time for the fun. My favorite part of the company is our people and how we all “own it” and support each other as a family. I have seen members of our Mspark family support each other in life, including cancer, death, and illnesses. It is a rare place to work. We have had many people leave/be hired away only to return. We have so many return we have a way for them to keep their tenure and PTO days if they return within a year!”
